The handle is woven in the technique of "Cross" from the tip, which we usually write {:-)
For a start splitem a chain of 4 stitches (beads No. 10/0 room on the book. Marina Laucini "Beads" of the series "artistic crafts". For beads of other sizes pick up specially):
Join him in the ring:
You can continue braiding to the end as usual in the technique of "Cross" (the handle is obtained without bevel), but nicer would be this:
1. Instead of four beads in the first cross of the next row to be inserted 3
2. To weave this element of the standard pattern:
3. How-to "forget" about this element, spin on:
4. Next, weave the handle in a spiral as long as its length is not equal to the length of the rod. Note that over time, the handle is a little stretched:
5. The following cross woven only one new bead using three interwoven:
Thus, the handle will get a small taper of a pattern and, in my opinion, will look more beautiful. However, as you like.
Further, for both methods.
The tip of a pen, where to place the rod, insert a small piece of twine and tied it in such a way that the rod was inserted with difficulty. This is necessary in order to the letter, he did not take off.
Cap
For a start splitem ball without a single item in my the art of weaving. In the hole to insert the tip of the rod. At the edges "stick out" 5 beads. Next spin:
Pay attention to the deliberate omission of one of the beads. This is done on purpose: the width of the cap is fitted to the thickness of the pen. You have the beads may be of a different size, customized required.
Next, weave in the usual technique of "Cross" rings to the end, or rather, to the length which You like.
At the end for beauty and convenience (to the beads for everything cuddled up {:-)) can the intervals between them to hold beads smaller so that the tip is not extended, the cervical cap was the same width throughout its length.
